Ashlee Bucholtz is a painter with a practice that has taken her to Ireland and onto the Cill Rialaig artists residency, which she attended in 2017. This experience solidified her intrigue for the narrative of people and spaces. This is expressed through non-conventional colour by focusing on nuances of extreme light and tone.
The purposely selected colour pallet of complementary pastels help form a discord, creating a sensibility of something at calm and in discomfort. By using colour to express the sensory experience of the story, the painting has the ability to move beyond the memory and create something new.
“For myself, the idea of memory, space and people are not clearly defined. The veneer of the subject no longer resembles a function but instead becomes a sensibility.”
Ashlee Bucholtz is a young emerging artist and a Graduate of the National Art School, Sydney (2016) and Newcastle Art School, Hunter Street TAFE. Some oh her highest achievements include, being selected as finalist for the Porta Geach, 2022/2023, The Inaugural Mudgee Arts Precinct Portrait Prize in 2023 and The Blue Mountains Portraits Exhibition.
